Chronicle of Emperor Jing

How did the emperor treat him?

Wei Yan watched the emperor lie down beside him, quickly followed the warmth, leaned over to touch him with his hands and feet, closed his eyes, and slowly thought about this question.

During these years by the emperor's side, the biggest grievances he has suffered were all caused by the emperor, and no one else has really made him suffer any grievances.He didn't have the chance to see the usual insidious methods in the palace, such as red top and white, positive obedience and negative transgression, conspiracy to frame, and adding insult to injury.

The reason, of course, is not that everyone in the palace is a kind person, but that the emperor has always slept and eaten with him, even when he was angry with him, even when he was deliberately neglected, he still had meals with him every day , hugging him to bed every night.

When the emperor did this, it took him a long time to realize that the emperor was ignoring him. It would be even more difficult for others to find that he was being scorned by the emperor.

The emperor's attitude is right there, and the people are there too. No matter who has been wronged by him, even if the emperor doesn't notice it for a while, other people have to worry about whether he will tell the emperor when he is lying next to the emperor's pillow at night. Speaking of these things, naturally no one would dare to use these methods against him.

Regardless of whether the emperor was intentional or unintentional, in fact, the emperor used the same bed and food to ensure that he would not be abused and bullied at will.

However, for Minwen, he must not be able to sleep and eat together, otherwise the emperor might really be angry.

Obviously, the emperor definitely didn't mean that.

Wei Yan's thoughts gradually shifted from life to errands.

The emperor's attitude towards his errands has always been to let Commander Shen teach him, sharpen him, and keep doing practical things for him. Although he has the emperor's people by his side, Zhao Shi and others are only responsible for his safety and life trivial matters , will not come to meddle in his errands.

Even the emperor had never interfered with his errands. Except for Zhao Shi and the others, his other subordinates were all chosen by himself, not appointed by the emperor.

Since they are all his people, there are naturally fewer constraints when doing things, and he can do things according to his ideas, so these years, he has always been very comfortable in doing errands.

After all, the emperor was willing to support him without interfering with his actions, which was the best situation for a courtier. In such a situation, if he couldn't do things well, he would be a little too incompetent.

What the emperor meant was that he should let Minwen go and let Minwen handle the internal affairs of the mansion. He only needs to watch from the sidelines, and only give a hand to Minwen when he finds it difficult. If Minwen can handle it Come on, just let him go and do it?

Wei Yan thought about it, and felt that the emperor most likely meant this.

If Minwen can be the master of the Yongning Hou Mansion, he will not be afraid of being wronged by others. After all, the decisions of these people's fate are all in Minwen's hands.It's too late for others to flatter him, so how dare they give him winks.

Thinking of this, Wei Yan felt that he had finally understood the meaning of the emperor correctly.

"Your Majesty, I understand." He hugged the emperor's arm and said in a low voice.

"Do you really understand?" Jing Li asked a little uncertainly.

Wei Yan thought he knew very well, but it was not just one time that he actually did something that was completely different from the opposite. Even if Wei Yan's words were convincing now, he did not dare to believe them easily.

"Your Majesty really understands." Wei Yan opened his eyes, looked at the emperor, and said very firmly, "How Your Majesty trains me, so I train Min Wen."

Hearing this, Jing Li was finally relieved.

He leaned over, kissed Wei Yan's forehead, and said, "Okay, then I won't care about the internal affairs of your mansion."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will arrange everything."

"Okay, I'll just watch it, don't let me down."

Next, he was waiting to see the next good show, and Jing Li secretly added another sentence in his heart.

"Your Majesty, even if I want to practice Minwen, I can't just take a day off every ten days. It's better to let me go back to the house every other day." Wei Yan deeply felt that the palms and backs of his hands were full of meat. The emperor couldn't let it go, and his son couldn't let it go. He couldn't ignore it, so he decided that a bowl of water would be flat, and that he would treat no one badly if he stayed with him for a day.

"Wei Yan, you have to think carefully about these words before you say them." Jing Li's brows that were originally smiling suddenly suppressed a smile.

It seemed that he opened his mouth like a lion, and Wei Yan also had a big appetite.

Wei Yan is an idiot, why can't he figure out who is first and who is last? He must correct this problem.

"Your Majesty, the minister stayed with His Majesty in the palace for two days, and then went back for another day?" Wei Yan saw that his face was gloomy, and he must have refused, so he could only take a step back.

"Hmph!" Jing Li only used this word to express his attitude.

"Your Majesty, how about three days?" Wei Yan pressed his face closer and called him again, "Your Majesty!"

Jing Li wanted to continue to refuse, but seeing Wei Yan used the trick of acting like a baby again, he knew that this was almost his bottom line.

"It's not impossible to go back one day every three days, but when you are in the palace, you must obey me obediently." He began to place conditions again.

"Okay, I will listen to your Majesty." Wei Yan agreed, "However, during the festival, I will go back for a few more days."

"Okay." This time, Jing Li agreed very simply, anyway, he would always find a reason to keep Wei Yan in the palace.

The two of them actually had some small calculations in their minds. Wei Yan thought that he would go out of the palace to do things during the day, and some things could be done during the day. If he had something to do, he would grind the emperor, and the emperor would soften his heart, while Jing Li Thinking that if there is nothing to do, Wei Yan will stay. Anyway, Wei Yan will still listen to him, so they calculated each other and settled this matter.

There was nothing to say all night, and on the second day, Jing Li went to court, Wei Yan went to the guard camp, and the two started their usual days again.

When everyone was busy, Qi Yuanheng, who had just returned to the capital, was also very busy.

Yesterday, he brought the craftsman introduced by the housekeeper of Weiyan Mansion to discuss how to renovate the house at home, and today he gathered with his friends in the random residence.

Some of his friends are idle cranes like him, and some are scholars who have achieved fame but have not yet entered an official position.

When these people get together, there is fine wine and tea, delicacies and silk bamboo are also must-haves during the banquet.

A few people were drinking and chatting there, chatting and chatting, and they talked about the emperor's will to focus on political affairs and dismiss the harem.

Courtiers wrote letters one after another to explain their views on this decree, but there was not much response from the scholars on this matter.

Qingliu scholars have very complicated feelings about today.

Today, he is not a faint king, but a majestic lord who looks like a wise king. The war in the south has been fought and rested for several years. Although a lot of money and food have been spent, the territory of the court has been increasing.

Moreover, the emperor was good at accepting advice and established the Department of Public Discussion, and most scholars praised him very much.

Although in recent years, his means of collecting power have become a bit bloody, but as long as he is not a scholar who only focuses on romance, he knows in his heart that this kind of thing is inevitable for a king, not accidental.

There will inevitably be such a confrontation between the pro-government emperor, the empress dowager and the old ministers. In order to win over the power, there are not a few emperors who have done things more ugly. Relatively speaking, the posture is already pretty good, at least between him and the empress dowager. Always be a mother who is kind and filial to the son, and should be an example to the world.

As long as there is nothing wrong with the emperor's behavior in the big picture, many people can understand that the emperor wants to do something in the small box.

What's more, the emperor had to focus on political affairs. No matter how you pick this matter, you can't pick a thorn. As for the dismissal of the harem, as long as the emperor's harem left the palace voluntarily and was not thrown out by the emperor, others can't say much.

For these reasons, it is not surprising that Qingliu Minyi has always maintained a wait-and-see attitude towards this matter.

"I'm afraid that drunkard doesn't want to be in the bar?" Qi Yuanheng took a sip of the wine in his glass and said leisurely.

The emperor wants to focus on political affairs. If the emperor dares to say this, he can't believe it. There must be other reasons.

"Yeah, yeah, I think so too, but I can't figure out what that person wants to do at the moment, mainly because I haven't heard of any confidante that she has, and it's worth his trouble." Someone echoed him.

Although there are rumors that the emperor dismissed the harem one after another, these people present are not stupid, so they naturally know that this possibility is unlikely.

The emperor was merciless towards Xie's family. Just think about how much affection he has for Empress Xie. The biggest reason why he is willing to give Empress Xie a face after death is probably because of the prince's face.

Although these people are not in the court, they are very concerned about the government. They analyze these things with others, and they analyze them very thoroughly.

But compared to smart people like them, the common people in the market actually prefer to listen to the story of the emperor's unforgettable old love, in order to be unhappy one after another, and now he has to dismiss the harem.

Qi Yuanheng listened to them talking about the current situation in Beijing, and got up to change clothes.

After he changed his clothes, he went out and saw Yuan Hongjing standing in the yard, obviously waiting for him specially.

Qi Yuanheng understood, nodded to him with a smile, and the two of them walked to a distance, and stood in an open place, making sure that there was no one around, before talking.

"Yuan Heng, there is something, I don't know if I should say it or not?" Yuan Hongjing opened his mouth with some difficulty.

"Hongjing, you and I have known each other for many years, is there anything we can't talk about directly?" Qi Yuanheng said with a smile, not knowing what he was going to say.

"Yuan Heng, this matter has nothing to do with you, but has something to do with your friend, Marquis Yongning."

"Wei Qi, what happened to him?"

"I've heard people say that the person who wants to dismiss the harem is because he has an affair with him."

"It's impossible, where did you hear that?" Qi Yuanheng never expected that he would hear such an answer, "How is this possible?"

How could Wei Yan and the emperor have an affair? This kind of thing is impossible, right?

Qi Yuanheng suddenly remembered an old event many years ago, and felt a little uncertain.

"Whether this is true or not, no one can tell, but now someone obviously wants to make this rumor true." Yuan Hongjing opened a teahouse, and he could only know about it after hearing a lot of news, "There is no such thing as yet. It was spread because too few people believed it, but if someone pushes it behind the scenes, this matter will probably cause a storm in the city soon."

"Do you know who is behind this matter?" Qi Yuanheng's face changed when he heard this.

As Yuan Hongjing said, it doesn't matter whether the matter is true or false, the real serious trouble is the people who are working hard behind it.

As for why Wei Yan fell into such rumors, Qi Yuanheng could find many reasons, each of which was related to the government.
